Is everyone here in the Discord?

Great job everyone. We are rolling and are at 64% completion of the draft. I imagine we'll be done in 2-3 days. Keep in mind that you have to maintain enough money to roster 40 players (i.e. $1 per roster spot), but you do NOT have to walk away from the draft with 40 players. You can call it quits whenever you want and figure out the rest through free agency etc.
-
Gotcha. Thanks for clarifying that!
-
Chris BaseballPods is correct. Only auction players that you can find in Ottoneu.
-
If you are looking to add a deep deep player, you should check Ottoneu first. If he's not on Ottoneu you're out of luck. These leagues are deep, but they aren't dynasty deep.
-
"To clarify, we can only auction players in ottoneu, correct?"
-
But he's in Couch Managers. Checked that one when this started on Saturday.
-
We're not doing any off-system spreadsheeting. You can search for players in Ottoneu even though the league isn't on there yet. If he's not there, you're out of luck.
-
So Roki Sasaki is legal? He's not in the Ottoneu system.
-
A couple of the ones I looked for were in there. Thanks for clarifying - been doing this for a decade in my other dynasty league so I figured I should see if I can do the same here.
-
If they're in the Couch Mangers system you can. If not, you'll have to wait until we're back on Ottoneu (assuming the player's in there). You don't have to draft 40 players on Couch Managers. You can leave roster slots and money on the table.
-
Because foreign players are a special area of mine, can I auction off NPB/KBO players?
-
Added two more nominations for everyone. That comes out to 84 total, but the system caps it at 75, so we should stay maxed out it total even if we aren't all individually maxed out. Let's push through this thing!
-
I added two more on top of that. And I think I reduced the auction time to 6 hours and bud reset to 4 hours.
-
Added another nom for everyone.
-
If there's an auto pause at night, whats the disadvantage of cutting the time in half? That would be like a 4 hour slow NFBC draft

When are we opening up more nominations?
-
FYI, full transparency, I accidentally undid two bids on Joel Payamps. I thought I was using a regular tool and adjusting my high bid but it was a commish tool. It brought the current wining bid down by a dollar, but it reset the clock too. Just in case anybody noticed. I won’t do it again.
-
Looks like we’re well on our way. I went ahead and gave everybody a 3rd nomination to make. I want to see some auctions end before adding more but I plan to add one or two more tomorrow.
The draft will auto-pause from 12-8 (ET) but I think you can still bid and nominate during that time.
-
Once everyone feels comfortable we want max niminations/auctions going.
-
You're good. Just make sure you familiarize yourself with the interface and everything during this first round of auctions.
-
If this is delaying things I’ll do it tonight. Just wanted to do some reading tonight. Busy day!

Zito and whichever team is YRUNL need to make nominations and then we're at full tilt until tomorrow when I increase nominations.
-
Please read the league email. It addresses the nighttime pause. It also says we can adjust the settings. I just don't want to turn the dial too hard right as we get started.
-
sorry, night time pause was a dumb question. i didn't realize the timer resets for each bid.

The 8 hr reset is a bit much

We're live, guys. See league email!

No worries. We’re FULL. I’m out running errands with the kids but I’ll start it in about half an hour! Look for updates!

I apologize for the delay, I logged in couch managers as Ballan.

Yeah, join at 11 am. Don’t leave until Thursday. But just got done doing a home auction from my phone because a family thing popped up. Auction went well, cake came out when the reserve draft started, had to leave it to the queue for that. Driving to an ahl hockey game now. Let’s go!

Going to be away for a couple of hours. Won't let me change the name on the auction thing, so I'm MrDave on that if it helps.
-
Lets keep the questions and speculation to a minimum on the board here. I'm aware of the last holdout. Working on it. One thing everyone could do to make things easy for the rest of us is to make sure your Couch Managers team name matches your team name here.
-
Do we have the guy in Vegas?

I'm there.

Probably a good idea to draft two though. If you want to get your full 162 games out of the position.

We’re not starting until everyone joins.
If you don’t want two catchers, just draft a second catcher last and I’ll do a penalty free cut after we import the rosters.
-
Other thing is you have two catcher slots. Not an issue until the last pick if people only want to draft one.

It's an 8 hour auction clock that gets reset with bids. Nobody is going to miss anything. BUT LET'S GET STARTED!!!!

2nd the notification of the draft. My gut is telling me that when I check to see if we are live, we will already be a few rounds deep. Cheers!

Is there a way to get Notifications for the draft?
